Robin may have increased his opportunity to bed a Hollywood starlet, but not much else.

He's another liberal A-hole.

I always suspected Williams of being on chemicals but I think it's time somebody checked his meds.

There's been a few stories out there lately, about Mel Gibson producing the next film by Michael Moore. If true, So much for Gibson's future with conservatives.

I've have never seen what people see in this coked out comedian. The sad part is that in serious roles like Awakenings, he's actually quite good. When he goes into his speed freak routine, I turn the channel.

In America, we have orange alert, but what the hell does that mean? Perhaps there ought to be a series of "stupidity alerts" that accompany political statements by celebrities. Yellow would accompany any Dixie Chicks opinion. Orange could cover comedians trying to make jokes out of terrorist alerts. And a red alert is a dire necessity for anything said by Barbara Streisand.

Somehow I doubt Bush is losing much sleep over being criticized by the Most Annoying Spaz in the History of Mankind.
To: dead
That's my wife's opinion. He was funny in Mork and Mindy (and Mindy made the show worth watching, IMO). He's just another out-of-touch, self-absorbed, hate-filled leftist from Hollywood. They're a dime a dozen. His opinion isn't worth the electrons spent to disseminate it.

Danny Glover?
: Also joining the chorus of affluent America-haters is actor Danny Glover, who, while attending last years International Festival of New Latin American Film in Cuba, condemned U.S. sanctions and threats of a war against Iraq. "Our government has declared itself an uncontested empire," Glover said, agreeing with Harry Belafontes assertion that the Bush administration seeks only "to extend its imperialist, economic and political domination all over the planet." "My position on the war is very clear," says Glover, "above all for the impact that it will have on women and children in Iraq who are already suffering the consequences of sanctions." He does not mention that the sanctions are in place for one reason alone: Saddams utter refusal to comply with the terms to which he agreed following the Gulf War. At the February 15 "peace" rally in New York, Glover had nothing negative to say about Saddam, while he condemned President Bush and "his administration of liars and murderers." www.frontpagemag.com, Mar.3. Not as influential as Danny Glover, according to Ben Johnson and John Perazzo: John Walker Lindh, Oliver Stone, Stanley Cohen and Jim McDermott.

Not if Mel Gibson's company backs The Slob's new "documentary" hit piece on the president, which will conveniently be ready just before the 2004 election.

He says, "America is broke, basically, but Bush wants to wage a war that costs pretty much a billion dollars a month."We have a president for whom English is a second language. He's like 'We have to get rid of dictators,' but he's pretty much one himself."
Basically, illiterate brats should avoid giving English lessons.
